    1500 diamond glass wet and dry then a good polish by hand or machine with glass polish. Just like polishing up paint.

    Would look better with Glass polish & just remove the ring, & if the polish doesn't shift it use compound like i did.... simples

    it was a quick fix i cant complain for what it cost. its deep scratches as some one has tried to dewiper it in the past and made an arse of it. the nut was cut off and there was no bolts holding the motor in place so it it has been rubbing.
